Problem Statement

The incenter of A1A2A3\triangle A_1A_2A_3 is II, and the center of the AiA_i-excircle is JiJ_i (i=1,2,3i=1,2,3). Let BiB_i be the intersection point of side Ai+1Ai+2A_{i+1}A_{i+2} and the bisector of Ai+1IAi+2\angle A_{i+1}IA_{i+2} (Ai+3:=AiA_{i+3}:=A_i i\forall i). Prove that the three lines BiJiB_iJ_i are concurrent.
